Chapter 49 Increase Investment
In the country of this era, there are no good cars.
In the capital, senior state cadres probably still have Hongqi cars to sit in, and generally in the following cities, it is good to have a Volga and gas car. The vast majority of official cars are still jeeps, but unlike the soft jeeps of the field troops, the roof has been changed to an aluminum alloy hard top.
The only one who can drive hundreds of kilometers and get here is a jeep.
However, there are not many jeeps, and the people who come are probably not very big cadres, so it is impossible to be surrounded by jeep convoys. After a dozen jeeps, there is a miscellaneous convoy of buses and tourist buses, which can be seen that the people sitting on them should be more important personnel.
Speaking of shabby, there are very few tourist buses in China in this era, even if they come from the capital, I am afraid they will not be able to find a few, so the fleet is still dominated by buses, which are temporarily dispatched to pick up important guests.
Like the last time Guan Fei picked up the teachers back, it was a borrowed bus.
"A lot of cars!"
In the crowd, someone let out a low moan.
Guan Fei raised his eyebrows and did not speak.
There are really a lot of cars, and most of what the person is referring to is not this, but that there are too many buses, so far there are thirty-six of them, and thirty-seven of them have emerged from the back corner, I don't know how many are behind!
The county seat is only a small place, and the buses are not infinite, there are forty or fifty buses in the city at best. If all these buses were drawn from the county, then the cadres and masses in the city would probably have to walk to and from work today.
Probably not.
The people sitting on the bus should be more important people. The train only goes to Kunming, and the next 200 kilometers are more than 200 kilometers, and it is impossible to walk over and then borrow a car from the county seat. So most of them are seconded from the Kunming bus fleet.
The convoy was so long that before they could see how many buses there were, the jeep at the front had already driven up and drove past them without stopping. A car followed closely behind, passing by the crowd.
Just when everyone was stunned, the third car began to slow down gradually, and finally stopped in front of everyone.
The cars behind it slowed down as it stopped, and slowly stopped, like a long dragon winding its way down the road. The two cars in front of them also seemed to notice that something was wrong, stopped and reversed, and then retreated.
The door of the third jeep opened, and a middle-aged man in a Lenin suit got out of the car, walked towards Guan Fei and the others with a smile, and stretched out his hand with a loud laugh from a distance: "Hehehehe, Brigade Commander Guan, meet again!" I can't imagine that you are so polite, and go so far to meet us, I really dare not take it! The two cars in front of me should not have thought that they would treat you as local cadres, so they didn't stop, ashamed and ashamed! ”
Someone Guan Fei came to know, it was Du Haibo, the director of the International Liaison Office of the First Bureau of the External Relations Department (Asia and Southeast Asia Bureau) he met in Hong Kong!
"Hahahaha, I didn't expect it to be an acquaintance, I knew that I wouldn't have to run dozens of kilometers to pick you up with such sincerity." Guan Fei smiled and stretched out his hand and shook him tightly.
This handshake is not like the first meeting, it is closed at one touch, the other party holds Guan Fei's hand tightly, and his left hand is still on the back of Guan Fei's hand, which is very affectionate.
At this time, it was not the time to talk in detail, Guan Fei turned sideways and introduced Zhang Shengguo and others to him one by one, and by the way, a group of Meng Hai cadres, the secretary of the town party committee, were also introduced.
Du Haibo was full of the cordial smile of a real senior cadre, and he did not treat anyone differently in the slightest, shaking hands and greeting them one by one. However, judging from the time of shaking hands, he shook hands with Zhang Shengguo and Sun Yaohua for the longest time, which was basically the same as Guan Fei. It was slightly shorter than Yu Baihai, the deputy brigade commander and Zhao Zhonghua, the chief of civil affairs, who later joined the 291st Brigade. As for Meng Hai's cadres, he is all touching hands, and he can finish it with a false grip.
"Director Du, it's rare for you to have time to come to us, and it's not too early, why don't you have a light meal in Menghai and then leave, so that we can have a chance to report to you." The secretary of the town party committee eagerly tried to keep him in the town for a little longer, to take a look, and to report to him on the local work by the way.
"Thank you for your enthusiasm, but I also have a heavy responsibility on my shoulders, and I dare not delay! If you have the chance, I'll bother you when you come back. Du Haibo looked at his watch, and the female staff member he had seen behind him stepped forward and whispered something in his ear, as if reminding, and he smiled politely and said politely.
"That's good! I'll ask them to prepare more local specialties, and next time you can take them along the way, take them back to taste our local flavors! The party secretary knew that he couldn't keep people, so he had to regret it.
"Definitely, definitely!"
After the two sides politely finished speaking, Du Haibo pulled Guan Fei and Zhang Shengguo into his car, saying that he wanted to understand the situation in advance, and drove the two entourages to other cars.
Guan Fei is the brigade commander of the 291st Brigade, and Zhang Shengguo is the political commissar, which is the highest military and political chief, so it is normal to ask them to talk alone. Moreover, Sun Yaohua in the trio was not invited to get in the car, Yu Baihai and Zhao Zhonghua did not have any objections, so they took the initiative to choose other cars.
"The last time we met in Hong Kong, I knew that Brigadier Kwan was young and promising, and he was very capable. But I didn't expect that Brigade Commander Guan would be able to make a great career in this desolate place. At that time, I said that you were terrible in the future, but now it seems that I still underestimate you! ”
When the convoy returned to the road, Du Haibo said with emotion.
"Where, I just did what I could, the 291st Brigade can have today's development, Political Commissar Zhang and Deputy Brigade Commander Sun have helped a lot. There are also Captain Meng and Principal An, all of whom have made great efforts. We are even more grateful to the country for its support at a critical moment, and all the commanders and fighters of the 291 Brigade have kept it in mind...... "Guan Fei is full of clichés and speaks very fluently.
Zhang Shengguo doesn't know how to say this kind of cliché, or they can say it but they are embarrassed to say it, but he is not embarrassed.
It's nothing more than a lubricant before the topic, and it won't kill people when you talk about it!
If you have to show your own integrity, you can't stand up to others, isn't this harmful to others and not good for yourself, why bother?
Zhang Shengguo sat in the co-pilot's seat, and when he heard Guan Fei affirm their achievements in front of the big cadres in the capital, his face was bloodshot with excitement, and his face was red.
After walking on the road for more than ten minutes, the two talked all the way, and Zhang Shengguo listened to it for so long, and his excitement gradually subsided. It's normal for people to be hot-blooded for a minute or two, and if they continue to be hot-blooded, ......, they will die!
He listened to the enthusiastic but contentless conversation between the two, and admired Guan Fei even more - Lao Guan is so powerful, he can actually talk and laugh with the big cadres in the capital, and not fall behind, this level!
In fact, what the two said, although there was a lot of nonsense, there was still content in it, but he couldn't hear it.
Under the packaging of a lot of nonsense, Du Haibo also revealed some information to Guan Fei, such as the new leader coming to power, the country has determined that the next step will be to change to construction, the leftist set will be discarded, and the old cadres who have been wrongly treated will come back to work, etc., and the changes in the country's major policies, and also listen to Guan Fei's views on this.
Of course, Guan Fei also used a lot of flowery rhetoric to give a very positive response to Du Haibo's temptation, believing that this is the future of the country's development, and the above decisions are very correct...... Wait a minute.
After some back and forth, everyone is sure that the other party's attitude is positive, healthy, and in line with expectations!
The biggest effect of these ten minutes is to confirm that the two sides overlap on the route and there is no essential conflict.
Although it took a little longer, both were happy with the result.
The convoy crossed the boundary river and had arrived at the defense area of the 291st Brigade, and Du Haibo began to get to the point little by little: "You first asked the domestic customized cement plant production line, and after the manufacturer worked overtime, it is expected to be completed next month, and then it can be sent to you." If the installation and commissioning go smoothly, it will be officially operational at the end of August, right? ”
"That's great! With the help of Captain Meng and them, the land leveling of our new city is going smoothly, and it may be completely completed by the beginning of next month. We are now all ready, only the east wind is owed! Guan Fei and Zhang Shengguo said happily.
The 291st Brigade can still buy cement from China, but the cement packaging paper bags are easily damaged, and once broken, they will be damp and solidified. The cement they buy from China has some of this loss, and it would be much better if they could produce it themselves.
Even if there is a slight shortage, a small amount of domestic supplementation is enough, and the cost can be greatly reduced.
"Hehe, the cement production line you provide is of a very high level! The country is now carrying out technical research on the production line with a daily output of 2,000 tons, and your set of drawings has helped us a lot, and it has broken through by leaps and bounds from the 2,000-ton production line to more than 4,000 tons per day. Don't you know, when you put this set of drawings in front of those experts in the Architectural Research Institute, their eyes were round, and they rushed to be the first to study. Later, the drawing room stayed up for several days and nights, copying hundreds of sets, and there was no more scramble. You have made a great contribution in this regard! Du Haibo turned sideways slightly, looked at Guan Fei and said meaningfully.
"Really? I can't imagine that the information I bought from that business intelligence dealer is real? That's great! Guan Fei snorted and resolutely refused to admit that he painted it himself.
"Hahahaha! Yes, he's a high-level intelligence monger! Du Haibo looked up to the sky and laughed, "By the way, there is also good news from the Metallurgical Research Institute." Based on the information you gave, they built a 10-meter experimental tunnel kiln, and it is said that they have also achieved good results, and the authenticity and correctness of the information can be basically determined. I think I bought this from that intelligence dealer, right? ”
"Yes, I only bought two pieces of information, and I won all of them, it seems that I have good luck this year!" Guan Fei said complacently.
Zhang Shengguo sat in the passenger seat, his eyes blinking vigorously, and he couldn't understand what they were saying. Where are the information mongers? These materials, they watched Guan Fei stay up all night and draw them alone.
Although he didn't understand, he didn't want to interject when he knew what he didn't understand, so he just listened silently.
"You're in luck! I heard that you presided over a project to convert an ordinary lathe into a CNC lathe, and it took less than ten days to transform an old-fashioned manual lathe into a CNC lathe? And with extreme precision? Du Haibo smiled at the corner of his eyes, and said lightly as if chatting.
"It's true!"
Guan Fei readily admitted that he just didn't want to take everything on himself, and he didn't insist on pushing the credit outward.
His major involves a lot of related disciplines, and the information is also very rich. However, the relevant knowledge that students need to know is always limited, and it is impossible to have as deep a foundation in electronic engineering that he has been immersed in for many years.
He does have a better cement production line, but even if he takes it out, can it be made in China?
What can't be made, what is he doing with all his strength?
Asking for hardship!
As far as he knows, China has also carried out difficult research in the night battle, and only then has the production line equipment that basically meets the requirements of Guan Fei under realistic conditions. As for the domestic self-use type, the technical indicators have been greatly reduced, and the simplified version has been produced to supply the needs of cement factories in various places.
The same is true for tunnel kilns.
In fact, this technology has been popular for decades, and due to high energy consumption and high pollution, it has gradually stopped building after the 21st century. The real right way is still the internationally accepted blowing vertical kiln.
The most valuable set of drawings he gave was not the tunnel kiln, but the supporting gas generator!
The proven natural gas reserves in China are not high, and it is difficult to exploit, the cost is high, and it cannot be used. But coal resources are extremely abundant! The gas generator he gave was originally the domestic technical data of later generations, which was designed according to his own coal resources and variety quality.
It doesn't matter whether the tunnel kiln is done in China or not, with this gas generator, it will be able to produce high-purity direct reduced iron in large quantities like abroad, and smelt high-quality steel and special alloy steel.
That's what he intended.
He only has information on these two technologies and understands the technical points slightly, but the actual level is still far from that of the current experts in China, and he is not qualified to have in-depth discussions with others.
CNC lathes are different, this is his old profession of mechanical and electrical engineering, and it can be used as a guiding light in this era!
"I thought you wouldn't admit this...... Du Haibo let out a low laugh, "In fact, this subject is also being carried out in China, from the Automation Research Institute, to the following industry research units, factories and mines are trying to do this, but they are basically petty fights." The results cannot be said to be none, but they are all singular and do not reach a leap in performance. From what I have learned, the mechanical part is not the key, or the original mechanical structure is directly adopted, the key is that the domestic strength of the CNC part is too weak, and a control integrated circuit alone can not be understood. I heard that you are using a new type of integrated circuit, which was newly launched last year? ”
"Yes! I have this information, including all the instructions, as well as the peripheral board design and interface design based on Z80. When I arrive, I will give it to you, and I can use it as a reference in China. Guan Fei said generously.
Du Haibo stared at him for a long time, seeing that he was a little uncomfortable, and then thanked him deeply: "Thank you!" Thank you on behalf of the country! Thank you for what you have done for us, we will not forget! ”
Zhang Shengguo, who had been listening silently, suddenly realized.
He finally understood how such a huge convoy and so many supplies could come about.
It turned out that the drawings given by Guan Fei were of great value, and the country accepted this situation, so they tried their best to reciprocate. And listening to Du Haibo's meaning, it's not just that, there will be more benefits in the future. Because of Guan Fei's kindness to China, China has seen his value. It is also because of Guan Fei that China attaches more importance to the future of the 291 Brigade, and is willing to invest a little more to see if it can gain more.
Of course, these investments are insignificant to the country, and they are just the next step in idle chess.
But for Guan Fei and the 291 Brigade, this return is too important!
He raised his head and looked at Guan Fei's indifferent expression from the rearview mirror, with a lot of emotion in his heart, envy in his heart, and deep admiration, but no jealousy.
can hold up the 291 Brigade, except for Guan Fei, there is no one else!
